In his fourth film of the year, Life as We Know It (Oct. 8), Josh Duhamel, 37, stars as a playboy who finds himself raising an orphaned baby with another unprepared singleton (Katherine Heigl). But the man married to rock star Fergie actually knows his way around a bassinet. In Life as We Know It, your character has no idea how to change a diaper. What about you? I have three younger sisters, so Mom put me to work. One was born when I was in high school and another when I was in college. I’ve had some practice. See exclusive photos of Josh Duhamel

The film has a few scenes that should make people cry. Do you ever well up at the movies? I cried during Ramona and Beezus when the cat died. I was sitting next to Joey King [his co-star who played Ramona] at a screening. I thought, I can’t cry in front of a 10-year-old. But I got a little teary. Four movies have kept you busy this year. What do you do on Sundays to unwind?My wife and I like to go to church if we’re in town. [They are Catholic.] On Sundays, I try to be as chill as I can, whether I’m watching golf or barbecuing. Now football season is starting, so that will pretty much cover my Sundays for a while.
